Step 2: Since the family is ineligible for Family Assist using the All Kids/FamilyCare Assist deduction, the worker recalculates using the TANF employment deduction:

Gross Earned Income

$360

Employment Deduction

-240

Countable Earned Income

120

Unemployment Comp.

+300

Total Countable Income

$420

Family Assist Standard

$432

Step 3: The family remains eligible for Family Assist. Process through ACM or IPACS, leaving code F in Item 25.

Example 3: A family of 2 in a Group II county has an active Family
Assist case. They report that they now have earned income of $990. Determine ongoing eligibility for Family Assist as follows:

Step 1: The worker first calculates using the TANF Cash 2/3 employment deduction:

Gross Earned Income

$990

Employment Deduction

-660

Countable Earned Income

$330

Family Assist Standard

$307

Step 2: Since countable income is greater than the Family Assist Standard using the TANF employment deduction, the worker recalculates using the 2nd method.

Gross Earned Income

$990

Employment Deduction

-90

Sub-Total

$900

$30

-30

Sub-Total

$870

1/3 for the remainder

-290

Countable Earned Income

$580

Family Assist Standard

$307

Step 3: Since the family's countable income is more than the Family Assist Standard under both budgeting methods, the family is no longer eligible for Family Assist. Change code F in Item 25 to code X. Update Item
30.

Example 4: A family of 3 in a Group II county has an active Family
Assist case. They report that they are now receiving UI of $898.

Step 1: Unearned Income: $898
Family Assist Standard: $417

Step 2: Since countable income is greater than the Family Assist Standard, the family is no longer eligible for Family Assist. The family does not receive extended medical since they do not have earnings or child
support.

Authorize All Kids/FamilyCare Assist for the family. Delete code F in Item 25.
